Nghi án vũ khí hủy diệt ở Libya

Từ khi xảy ra xung đột ở Libya, quốc tế đã rất lo lắng: liệu ông Gaddafi có sử dụng vũ khí hủy diệt hàng loạt?

Đây không phải là nghi vấn vô căn cứ. Trên thực tế, trong thời kì chiến tranh Toyota (những năm 1980, gọi là chiến tranh Toyota là vì tất cả các xe quân sự đều là loại xe Toyota ()), Libya đã sử dụng một số vũ khí hóa học.

Sau khi bị Mỹ Anh và Liên Hiệp Quốc điều tra, tháng 9/2003 Gaddafi tuyên bố phá hủy các loại vũ khí hóa học, vũ khí hạt nhân và các loại tên lửa có tầm bắn trên 300km.

Theo tiết lộ mới nhất của một quan chức trong Liên Hiệp Quốc hiện Nay Gaddafi vẫn còn khoảng 10 tấn vũ khí hóa học được cất giấu trong một kho bí mật các Tripoli 600km.

Do đó, một trong mục tiêu can thiệp quân sự của các nước phương Tây là kho vũ khí này. Chính phủ Anh từng đe dọa là đưa đặc nhiệm SAS tới để vô hiệu hóa các vũ khí hóa học của ông Gaddfi. ()

Tuy nhiên, khả năng sử dụng vũ khí hạt nhân của Gaddafi là rất nhỏ vì trình độ kĩ thuật của Libya rất thấp và tên lửa đẩy bị thiếu.

Căn cứ theo thông tin từ Tổ chức An toàn toàn cầu Mỹ, hầu hết các quốc gia trên thế giới đều cam kết cát giảm vũ khí hạt nhân nhưng Gaddafi luôn mộng tưởng tự tạo cho mình tên lửa nguyên tử.
Thậm chí, có thông tin, nhà khoa học Abdul Qadeer Khan của Pakistan đã cung cấp các tài liệu kĩ thuật quan trọng về phát triển vũ khí hạt nhân cho Gaddafi.

Cho đến năm 2003, Thanh tra quốc tế rất ngạc nhiên khi thấy ở Libya có hơn 4.000 máy ly tâm làm giàu uranium, Với số máy ly tâm này, trong 8 năm (đến năm 2011) Libya có thể chế tạo một đầu đạn hạt nhân.

Thời báo New York Times, các cam kết từ bỏ vũ khí hạt nhân của Gaddafi dường như chỉ là để làm “vui lòng” quốc tế.

Pháp đã nổ súng vào Libya

Chiến tranh đã bắt đầu
www.cnn.com

Bắt đầu đánh thăm dò rồi

Bộ Quốc phòng ở Paris nói rằng một máy bay chiến đấu Pháp đã bắn mũi đầu tiên ở Libya, mục tiêu là một chiếc xe quân sự của Libya.

Nếu không bị tuyệt diệt, có thằng nó sang đâu đó xin một quả mang về rồi để cho nổ, thế là Thế Chiến III bắt đầu.
Đây chắc cũng là lý do tại sao phương Tây không muốn mấy nước của nợ có vũ khí nguyên tử. Vừa vì an ninh, vừa vì độc quyền buôn vũ khí.

Tripoli, Libya (CNN) -- French fighter jets soared over Libya on Saturday to counter Moammar Gadhafi's military forces who were intent on destroying the opposition as they pushed into the rebel stronghold of Benghazi.
"Our air force will oppose any aggression by Colonel Gadhafi against the population of Benghazi," said French President Nicolas Sarkozy, speaking after an international, top-level meeting in Paris over the Libyan crisis.
"As of now, our aircraft are preventing planes from attacking the town," he said, calling the intervention a "grave decision."
"As of now, our aircraft are prepared to intervene against tanks, armored vehicles threatening unarmed civilians."

The international show of force is much-welcomed by besieged rebel forces who have called for backup to help them stave off a government offensive against their positions in Benghazi and other rebel-held enclaves.
Sarkozy said Gadhafi still has time to stop its activities and as of Friday, France, Britain, the United States and League nationsntries passed along a warning for Gadhafi to stop his operations immediately.
But "Gadhafi has totally ignored the warning" and "in the last few hours his forces have stepped up their deadly offenses," Sarkozy said.
The international coalition meeting in Paris -- which included Western and Arab partners -- focused on how to take on a Libyan government bent on destroying the fledgling opposition movement under the U.N. resolution authorizing force to protect civilians against the Gadhafi government.
"There is still time for Colonel Gadhafi to avoid the worst, by complying immediately and unreservedly with all the demands of the international community. The doors of diplomacy will open once again when the aggression stops," Sarkozy said.
Speaking from Brasilia, Brazil, President Barack Obama said the international coalition was united. "Our consensus was strong and our resolve is clear. The people of Libya must be protected."
Asked whether the decision to carry out bombing against Libyan forces could begin immediately after Saturday's session ends, a senior State Department official said: "In terms of when the bombing starts, I'll leave that for others to lay out at the appropriate time."
"Everybody recognizes the urgency," he said.
Herman Van Rompuy, president of the European Council, said the European Union is ready to give a "new Libya" economic help and aid in building new institutions.
In Rome, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's office confirmed to CNN that Berlusconi has proposed the use of the NATO base in Naples as a command center for allied action in Libya. Naples is the base for U.S. Sixth Fleet, which oversees the U.S. Navy in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic Ocean.
The dramatic move came as Gadhafi forces earlier Saturday assaulted Benghazi. Incoming artillery rounds landed inside the city, and pro-Gadhafi tanks rolled into the town firing rounds, witnesses said. Plumes of smoke rose in Benghazi as civilians said buildings came under small arms fire. Many fled their homes in fear of a full-blown assault there.
A fighter jet plummeted from the sky, burst into flames, and nose-dived to the ground. An opposition fighter said the plane belonged to the rebels and was dispatched to try to stop forces supporting Gadhafi from entering Benghazi -- the heart of the opposition. CNN could not independently confirm who the plane belonged to.
Later Saturday, Benghazi became quiet and there was a calm over the city. While plumes of smoke can be spotted, the pro-Gadhafi tanks that rolled into the town firing rounds earlier are not in sight.
"I have all the Libyan people with me and I'm prepared to die. And they are prepared to die for me. Men, women and even children," Gadhafi said in a letter addressed to President Barack Obama and read to reporters by a government spokesman in Tripoli on Saturday.
Fighting has raged in Libya over the last day despite the government's announcement of an "immediate" cease-fire on Friday.
The declaration -- which came hours after the U.N. Security Council resolution authorized the use of force, including a no-fly zone -- was seen by rebels as simply a move to buy itself time.
Gadhafi -- in separate letter addressed to Sarkozy, British Prime Minister David Cameron, and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon -- called the U.N. moves "invalid" because the resolution does not permit intervention in the internal affairs of other countries.
"Libya is not yours. Libya is for all Libyans," said the letter, also read by the spokesman. "You will regret it if you take a step toward intervening in our internal affairs."
"It is not your country. We could never and would never fire one bullet against our people," the letter said.
Violence has raged in Libya following protests calling for democracy and freedom and demanding an end to Gadhafi's almost 42-year-long rule. It's a conflict spurred by anti-government protest and resulting regime violence against civilians -- which the U.N. resolution cites as "outrageous" and Sarkozy calls "murderous madness."
But Gadhafi defended his actions in his note to Obama. He said his opponents are from al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, the group's North African wing, and asked Obama what he would do if such an armed movement controlled American cities.
"Tell me, how would you behave so I could follow your example?"
After the U.N. Security Council authorized its resolution, countries, such as Britain, Canada and France, announced military planning and preparations.
As talk emerged in Europe of speedy military action against Gadhafi's regime, Obama on Friday warned Gadhafi to pull back from several besieged cities or face military consequences. He also said power and water must be restored to several cities.
If Gadhafi doesn't comply, the U.N. resolution will be imposed through military action, the president said.
"These terms are not negotiable," Obama said.
The U.N. resolution, while not authorizing such a move, does not preclude the United States from arming rebels, said Susan Rice, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
The civil war has hurt the Libya's oil production, which Shokri Ghanem, the nation's oil minister, the called "our most important source of income and our lifeblood."
Speaking to reporters in Tripoli on Saturday, he said the abandoment of the workforce amid the conflict is the main reason for a drop in production.
He said Libya wants to restore its fields and increase production. He stressed that Libya is honoring all of its commitments despite the conflict and asked foreign and local employees to return.
